[Simh] MicroSD Card for SimH on Raspberry Pi 3

[Shaun McCloud]

khandy21yo - I have two 128GB Samsung EVO MicroSD cards from old Android
phones that I plan to use for this.  I actually have one Pi 2 setup as a
print server at home and a Pi 3 as a RetroPIE box (running of a SSD in an
external enclosure).
Timothe - I will consider an external HDD in the future if I kill a MicroSD
card or two.
